Would you like Old CBJ player over this team ?

[pled]

This 23 man roster fit the cap and I definitely miss some of the forwards but the defense and goalie are better now.

BTW Nash is free agent soon would you take him back if he could fit in the cap ? He is the reason I'm a blue jackets fan so I would love to see him again.

Nash Johansen Voracek
Saad Anisimov Carter
Dano Brassard Marchessault
Hartnell Karlsson Letestu
Mackenzie Upshall

Moore Russell
Methot McQuaid
Connauton Reilly
Prout

Mason
Forsberg

Are these guys all at their peak or is this as is now?

now I guess

Then the current Jackets team. That defense and goaltending is awful.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

That team is missing Duchene. That's my only gripe

Is there a way to Reply to a Like? Because if there was, how obvious was it that PanarinDangles would LIKE the above-quoted post, which somehow snuck in the Duchene line of thinking into a thread about PAST Jackets. And my guess is J2F was being facetious - but maybe not!

Or maybe I liked the above post for it's facetiousness

That defense and goaltending is brutal. Yikes

What about the forwards

 

[Samkow]

What about the forwards

They're real good. If Nash and Carter weren't past their primes, they'd almost make up for the AHL-quality defense.

Swap Hartnell and Dano.
That FWD group is really solid. I’m sold.

Ummmm, not so much imo. Solid D + Bob allows you to win now. Current CBJ may need a little more skill up front to get over the hump as far as PO runs. The past Forwards, in the aggregate had that extra level of skill, but I'd take the current CBJ in a heartbeat. It's a any eyeopener to think that there is a reasonable argument that the top 3, and possibly top 4, of D-men we've had over the first 17 years are currently on the roster. And it was the first time CBJ cleared 100 points, with room to spare. If Panarin produces like he did in CHI and plays regularly like he did against the Isles, he will shoot up to the top of the charts of F in the history of CBJ.

Maybe this isn't so much about the current CBJ, but the pain of the first 15.

I still miss some of those forwards for sure

 

[Grouchy]

No McBackup?

I don't know why but I would want Hartnell over Nash. Maybe just for that one game in Pittsburgh where he gleefully gets a natural or Gordie hat trick.

 

[WannabeFinn]

That defense and goaltending is horrific. Also I want nothing to do with that prick Carter.
